"Remington" lyrics - THE LUMINEERS

And the ocean was all in my fingertips
But I held you on my back
And the foam of the sea was an awful white
But beyond it painted black

[Bridge:]
Waitin' on the sun
I'm waitin' on the sun
I'm waitin' on the sun tonight

I awoke from the sleep of a hundred days
To the fire station bells
And the smell of the smoke brought me back in time
When my father killed the cold

[Refrain:]
Hey, Mr. Remington, promise us everything
Please, Mr. Remington, now
Hey, Mr. Remington, promise us everything
Please, Mr. Remington, now
